Does anyone have any experience with having weight loss and having to change dosages? I'm on lithium and seroquel and am wondering if you take less as you lose weight.

Thanks in advance.

The surgery and resultant weight loss won't change the condition that requires those drugs, so I don't think it would change the quantity of the drugs that you take.

Would the meds not be able to absorb the same way..or even correctly?
